Asking Siri for the time??

Hi,


Has anyone tried asking Siri for the time or date? It's not working for me.


If I ask "What's the weather going to be today" - it gives me the weather for my town.


But if I ask "What time is it" - it says "I have no idea what time it is in <insert street address>. Sorry about that!"


I've checked my contact info and it all looks ok.

Any ideas?


Cheers

I'm having the same problem. It is really annoying me as I used the same phrase in the old voice control and it worked just fine. I used it almost every day on my bike to see just how late I was running for work!


If I ask "what time is it in Oxford?" Siri replies just fine but a simple "what time is it?" give the same nonsense answer that you are getting. Siri is trying to be too clever and use the ezxact location, down to street level, rather than just more generally (ie city or country level).


Very very annoying and I'll be delighted if anyone can provide a solution to this!


Ta!
